Tim Janvier- Liverpool, England
Professional Basketball Coach
2004 United Kingdom Young Coach of the Year
"FUN-damental Basketball Camps are the best I've worked at. Everyone was very welcoming and I made a lot of friends/contacts I'm still in touch with. As a player you'll definitely improve your basketball skills through stations, games and competitions. All the coaches/campers put forth a lot of effort which guarantees everyone gets a lot out of it. It's certainly one of the many reasons people return year after year. You'll experience the best of American life and meet some great people. I can't wait to return this summer!"

"My week at FUN-damental Basketball Camp was definitely an unforgettable one. Being from a different country than anyone there, I was warmly welcomed by the staff and other members of the camp. This acceptance allowed me to develop strong bonds with a lot of the people there and also created the fun and family-like ambiance of the camp. Not only was my experience there one of the happiest ever, it also built up my basketball abilities with its all day workout and experienced coaches, allowing me this year, to play at a higher level at my school. Despite being so far away from home, there wasn't a day of the week I didn't enjoy."

" I had a great time last summer at FUN-damental basketball summer camp. I felt very welcomed and everybody was so friendly. Coming from Iceland it was a real eye-opener to see the excellent coaching, which gave me a better appreciation of the game. The facilities were excellent and the food was good too. My stay at Morrisville was fun and memorable. I hope I can make the long trip from Iceland again."

The fun he had with the other campers and the great coaching has helped Zach on his way to participating in a sport he loves. Zach is now on a traveling basketball team in Coral Springs,Florida.

"My son, Calvin Brazely II, went to FUN-damental Basketball Camp in Florida last year, when he was 11. Prior to attending the camp, he was making 12 points a game at his school. This year he is making 19.5 a game. His outside shooting has greatly improved and, more importantly, he shows more self-confidence. I strongly recommend this camp for building the confidence level and athletic ability of a camper. We are planning on sending Calvin to the FUN-damental Basketball Camp in New York this summer."
